As two compact cars, Ford's Fox hatchback and Buick's yinglang GT have always been enemies. They both have a good shape. At the same time, the price range is also roughly similar. Let's talk about these two cars today.
Xiaobian selects two of the most popular automatic models from 12 hatchback focus and 13 yinglang GT, and compares them from three aspects of price, configuration and mechanical performance. The two models are fox 2012 hatchback 1.6L at comfort and yinglang 2013 GT 1.6L automatic fashion version.
Who can be strong in mechanical performance
The two models are equipped with 1.6-liter in-line 4-cylinder engine respectively. Fox's horsepower is slightly higher, 125 HP is 4 HP higher than GT yinglang. In terms of gearbox, fox is equipped with the classic 6-speed dual clutch transmission powershift, which is also equipped on the old Mondeo victory. Yinglang is equipped with a 6-speed automatic manual transmission. Therefore, from the data point of view, fox excels yinglang GT in terms of engine horsepower and gearbox advancement. As for the adjustment, we will continue to talk about it.
The most intuitive data reflecting the adjustment of gearbox and engine is the 100km acceleration result. The official data of yinglang is 13.2 seconds, while Fox official does not announce its 100km acceleration time. However, according to the actual evaluation of car friends, the 100 km acceleration result is about 11 seconds. The main reason why yinglang's 100km acceleration is not ideal is that the transmission is not as smooth as the double clutch. At the same time, because the body size of 4671 * 1815 * 1478 is much larger than that of fox, the quality of the whole vehicle is much heavier than that of fox.
In terms of suspension, the two models are equipped with McPherson front independent suspension, and the rear suspension is not the same. Fox rear suspension is equipped with multi link independent suspension, while yinglang is still a composite torsion beam type non independent rear suspension. In this way, the comfort level of fox should be much better than yinglang.
To sum up, the powertrain and suspension configuration of the fox hatchback are much higher than that of yinglang GT. Therefore, Buick yinglang GT still needs to strengthen in terms of mechanical performance, and the non independent suspension of 150000 rear suspension really shouldn't be.
Who has the advantage in configuration
In terms of configuration, GT Englander has more skylight, multi-functional steering wheel, rear reversing radar, main electric seat adjustment, rear cup holder, automatic headlamp, interior atmosphere lamp, rearview mirror heating and automatic air conditioning. Meanwhile, the sound is much better than fox. But its safety performance is greatly reduced, even brake assist, traction control, and ESP body stability system are not equipped.
Therefore, in terms of configuration, GT yinglang is indeed much better than fox, but the extra car price and reduced electronic security configuration are really unacceptable.
Who has the advantage in price
The price of this model of fox is 130900. Due to the popularity of this model, the national preferential rate is about 5000. Due to the introduction of energy-saving tax reduction models and the purchase tax, the price is about 132195.
The price of yinglang's model is 152700, and the national average discount rate is about 15000. The price of non energy-saving tax reduction model is about 151470.
After comparing the basic data of the two cars mentioned above, it is not difficult to see that the 2012 model of fox hatchback is a complete explosion of Buick yinglang GT in terms of mechanical performance and market price. But the configuration is not as good as yinglang. Considering the price difference, yinglang has no advantage in practice. So my suggestion to you is that if you are a shape control, Ying Lang GT is absolutely right, but if you go to work on your own, the low fuel consumption fox hatchback is still a good choice for you.
